At Telford College, in Scotland, wireless networking could be putting an end to personal space.
The college’s new campus, located on the Edinburgh waterfront, will eschew personal offices in favor of a "hot-desking" environment—two open, spacious rooms where everyone from lecturers to high-level administrators will share a wireless network. Campus officials say they’re excited about the plan, but critics say it’s ridiculous to expect administrators to function without desk drawers, file cabinets, and the like. (The Scotsman)
